Thursday, July 20:
First act of Siegfried; Herr Unger quite good, in spite of the players’ not giving him enough support. Unfortunately Herr Schlosser has forgotten a lot of Mime, through having had to sing all sorts of different things in Munich.

Overview
The first act of “Siegfried” brought a solid showing from Herr Unger, despite weak support from the rest of the company. Herr Schlosser was a problem, having lost much of Mime after singing a variety of other roles in Munich.
